Hi again, This might seem like stating the bleeding obvious, but you can find what the the real amps and FX the Line 6 models are based on in the the Helix Owners Manual. Oops! Ok you might find this link useful in figuring out not only what the Amps and FX are based on, but also lots of tips for the common amp and FX settings. Plus all the Factory Reset info should you ever need it. https://helixhelp.netlify.com/ Have fun.

Merci, Stan, Je suis content que votre Helix ait été mis à jour sans trop de problèmes. Heureux d'avoir aidé de façon modeste. S'amuser

Voilà! Résolu

Salut, Voir mon article ci-dessus sur le problème des «pilotes» dans Windows 10. Assurez-vous également que l'application HX Edit n'est pas ouverte pendant le processus d'installation.

Stan, Ce n'est pas une question de savoir si l'un est plus facile que l'autre, ce n'est pas pertinent. Ce qui est important est ceci: Les notes de mise à jour indiquent qu'il existe deux méthodes différentes pour effectuer la mise à jour en fonction du micrologiciel de votre appareil. 1. Si vous avez 2.80 installé ou 2. si vous avez 2.71 ou une version antérieure installée Vous avez choisi l'option qui convient le mieux à votre situation et suivez les instructions à la lettre. Ils remplissent tous deux la même fonction mais partent d’un réglage de base différent. J'espère que cela t'aides.

Ha, ha, ha, neither do I. What I was meaning is that I can see the need for snapshots on the hardware version of Helix when used in a live performance. For recording I have intro, verse, chorus etc, on separate tracks each with their own settings and Logic automation. That way you can have a little more control over, for example, a long panning delay trail coming out of a solo section back into a verse. It’s only when you “run out of steam” that you then need to bounce in place. I suppose everyone has their own methods of working with this stuff - it’s endless fun! Now you got me thinking that I’m going to have play around with automating wah fx.

Bonjour. Vous ne mentionnez pas si vous mettez à jour à partir de 2.80 ou une version antérieure. Il est utile de savoir cela ainsi que toute information concernant votre ordinateur et votre système d'exploitation. Si vous utilisez un PC et Windows 10, la défaillance peut être due à un problème de «pilote». De nombreux rapports signalant l'arrêt de l'installation ont été signalés. Vous devez ensuite réinstaller les «pilotes Line 6» avant que Windows ne puisse se connecter à votre Helix et terminer la mise à jour. J'espère que cela aide et fait sens. Toutes mes excuses pour les erreurs dans la traduction française en ligne. Vous voudrez peut-être vérifier dans ces discussions tout indice susceptible de vous aider. https://line6.com/support/topic/48446-28-update-stuck-in-boot-failure-entered-update-mode/ https://line6.com/support/topic/48526-helix-lt-28-update-frozen/ https://line6.com/support/topic/48466-helix-lt-failed-while-updating-28/ https://line6.com/support/topic/48425-installed-28-helix-rack-bricked-cant-roll-back-boot-mode-does-fail/

I’m with you there Spikey. I’m also a Mac Pilot and have been since the Mac Plus arrived, but my colleague specialises in building custom PCs mostly for music, graphics/video editing and also deals with web hosting, so he deals with all that Linux, Ubuntu and whatnot. It’s all too arcane for my sensibilities. The only time I was ever tempted to acquire a Windows machine was to use it as a dedicated render engine for my 3D graphic stuff. Note: I mentioned this Windows thing to him and it says that it’s not his problem. No such thing as free advice from him - he charges for that, it’s a business thing.

Hi, As I’m sure you’re aware there is a firmware update to v2.81 available for download, therefore my advice would be to install that first in the hope that it clears out any glitches. My Helix is not available for me to check what you are describing in your patch, but from what you say it appears that you are running low on DSP. The only thing that springs to mind as to what might cause this is maybe you are using the stereo version of your blocks. I suggest that you create another preset with a mono Heir Apparent into the Fullerton NRM and Cab and if that is using all the DSP on the top path , send the signal to the 2nd path where you should be able to add mod, delay and reverb. Hope this helps / makes sense.

Hi JuhTai, You seem to be a little late to this “event” and drivers on Windows PCs seem to have been a large part of the issue. Some threads which may contain helpful work arounds for the driver thing. https://line6.com/support/topic/48446-28-update-stuck-in-boot-failure-entered-update-mode/ https://line6.com/support/topic/48526-helix-lt-28-update-frozen/ https://line6.com/support/topic/48466-helix-lt-failed-while-updating-28/ https://line6.com/support/topic/48425-installed-28-helix-rack-bricked-cant-roll-back-boot-mode-does-fail/ I’m not a Windows mechanic so this is the best I can offer, although this place has been alive with this stuff. Hope this helps

Broken Windows got to be down to Helix and Line 6 - or at least what the users will be thinking. Couldn’t possibly be anything else - right? I mean it worked perfectly well before those Line 6 monkeys screwed everything up. Round up the usual suspects. Why do they have to keep giving us free stuff? When can we expect v3.0 and what will be in it? What do you want from life... a Winnebago--Hell, a herd of Winnebago's we're giving 'em away or how about a McCulloch chainsaw, a Las Vegas wedding, a Mexican divorce, a solid gold Kama Sutra coffee pot, or a baby's arm holding an apple? Oh, damn - done that one before - this stuff just goes round and round and round and round and ad infinitum.

Not half as much as some of the people who visit here. ;-)

Oops! That’s all I had - sorry.

I have HXN 1.81 up and running in Logic Pro X 10.4.4 with no issues this far. Although with Native I don’t seem to use the Snapshots, I can understand the need for them in a live situation, but for recording if I need to swap from one setting to another I would print one take to disc ( bounce in place) while running another copy with different fx on another track.

Hi spenserj87, I’m not sure if this ties in with your situation regarding HX Edit, but there has been some other variations of the “blank screen” thing on Native. You may want to try filling this thread to see if there is anything that turns up that may help you. The only thing that I managed to find by trawling the web was that it’s a Windows thing - YMMV.  In fact this is the quote I found.  ”Known graphics card issue, update drivers and reinstall .NET framework”  Check this thread for more. https://line6.com/support/topic/49342-hx-edit-281-and-helix-native-starting-with-with-a-blank-screen-and-crash/?tab=comments#comment-306424

I've seen that on a t-shirt! Oh, it was one that Digital_Igloo faked a picture of ;-)

Hi HO (I love doing that!) Not that it really matters, as these guys must have been working away like maniacs fixing this stuff, so I will forgive them a few typos. Example here: Not Native 2.80 - easy to screw up, but somebody will gripe about it. "STEP 1b—Backing Up Helix Native If you don't currently own Helix Native, skip this step. Open any instance of Helix Native 2.80 (NOT the new Helix Native 1.81) within your DAW and " Anyhow, just done my Helix Floor and Helix Native - no problems, works a treat .

The beauty of the backup file is you can select to restore the Globals only - just put a little green tick in the Globals only box - result! JOY!

Hi, If you read the “Read Me” section then you would have performed a “Backup” before proceeding with the update? If you did fine - just restore you stuff. If not, well... Welcome to the long dark night of the soul! Read Me

That’s why you have HX Edit as a librarian - back up first before any reset which may wipe your custom presets!

Wondering how long before we see v.2.90. ;-)

Hi subseauk, You may want to check the “input pad” settings when using the single coils on the Strat and ‘buckers on the Paul. That may need playing around with if they sound subdued as they have different impedance. Oh, yeah - I don’t think anyone has ever been impressed by the onboard preset files right out of the box - you need to work on your own stuff and getting it sounding how you want. If you have come from a regular amp set up and not used a modelling system it seems totally alien, because what you are dealing with is a fully produced sound such as you would experience in a studio control room listening through the monitor system. Keep at it - you will find your sound.

Hi, I’m a Mac Jockey so all I can say is - nothing to lose, give it a shot.

Hi bruvtilov, Considering that you have already admitted that you “stupidly forgot to follow the instructions“ along with “Using Native is part of my livelihood” you’re not going to like my comments, but ... User error! O.K. First up - Don’t Panic! What we have here is mainly a software problem, it’s rarely fatal and can most likely be fixed. Secondly - what you need to do in circumstances like this is provide as much info as possible. The error code is helpful, but what platform a OS are you attempting to run HX Native may give some more clues. Help us to help you.

Hi, Sorry, I’m not a Widows user, that quote is all I found - reference to the .NET framework.
